Hi,
I found this fly in big numbers in a cave in Northern France. (date: 2 february 2010)
Big version:

It was present in practicaly all the caves we visited.
And just because it is a cool fly, this Leucophenga maculata was also present in the same cave :) :)
Bye, Jonas

I guess it will come close to a Heleomyza captiosa. I found it also often in caves

Hi,
H.captiosa it is!
I checked its genitalia with this thread: http://www.diptera.info/forum/viewthread.php?forum_id=5&thread_id=27392
and it only confirms H. captiosa.
Thanks for the clue,
bye Jonas

Hi, really
H. captiosa, not rare in France, especially in the southern part !
